Chelsea Clinton vs. Ivanka Trump: How Do Their Weddings Stack Up?

There are just three months left until you get to cast your vote for either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump in the presidential election, but let's talk about the real Clinton vs. Trump election here. Yup, we're talking about Chelsea Clinton and Ivanka Trump's dueling weddings—two completely over-the-top and glamorous events that spared no expense. But which wedding was more extreme? Let's take a look at the statistics, shall we?

Chelsea: The first daughter wore a strapless, laser-cut organza Vera Wang dress with a full skirt. The estimated cost? A cool $20,000. For the reception, she reportedly changed into a Grecian style gown with a black belt, also designed by Vera Wang.

Following their 3-month engagement, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner tied the knot on Oct. 25, 2009, at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J. Before her nuptials, the bride tweeted, "Everything is simply perfect! I'm getting married today!"

Chelsea: Chelsea and Marc reportedly spent $750K on catering from the St. Regis. Meanwhile, the bride and groom's $11,000 gluten-free cake was from La Tulipe Desserts in Mt. Kisco, New York, Seems like a normal amount to spend on carbs.

Ivanka: It's unknown how much Ivanka spent on catering, but it's safe to assume Donald Trump's golf club had things covered. However, we do know that she and her husband enjoyed a 13-layer cake from Sylvia Weinstock, who said "each layer was ringed with flowers. We had lisianthus, roses, peonies, Lilies of the Valley, baby's breath—all in the coloring of whites, creams, pinks ivory and flush tones." It's not clear how much this exact cake cost, but Weinstock's confections have been known to clock in at $70,000.
